The Red Cross Wants to Expand Disaster Assistance in the Flin Flon Area.

 

 

 

The Community Outreach Coordinator for the Canadian Red Cross North Region Bev Erickson spoke to City Council at their meeting last night.  She was asking for their help in developing Personal Disaster Assistance Teams in Flin Flon by encouraging local services such as the Fire Department and Emergency Services to partner with the Red Cross and these teams.

            

  Erickson explains the teams are the main focus of the Red Cross at this time as they provide a quick response in case of an emergency such as forest fires, home fires or flooding.  She says the they can provide food, water and other needed supplies, they work with local services in helping people access support and take care of basic needs.  She adds they recruit people from the community for these Assistance Teams and provide the necessary training adding teams have already become active in The Pas and Thompson and are hoping Flin Flon can join them by the middle of next year.  Mayor Cal Huntley said they are quite interested and she will be hearing from Council soon with their response.
